ACC Formula 1 Livery Collection

When making liveries, there is no greater source than the decades of great liveries found within the archives of Formula 1’s history. Not only are they a great source of inspiration, they are also often less intricate than their modern counterparts. Due to the lower fidelity of the broadcast in those days, intricate designs didn’t carry over to audiences. That is why the liveries focussed on effectiveness, making them more memorable in the process. And these memories are the ones I try to evoke when making these liveries, which you...

Make your own Formula 1 livery with this free template – 2023 update

February is to many racing enthusiasts a special month. It’s the month in which Formula 1 teams traditionally reveal their car for that year. Lately though, it has mostly become a way to just show the livery the team is intending to run. And since a livery is better than nothing, interest in these liveries is high. How high? Well, high enough that you guys have been exploding my traffic these past few weeks looking for a way to make your own livery. While I’m currently really big on making...

Make your own 2022 Formula 1 livery with this free template

Please note: a new 2023 update to this template can be found by clicking this link! On 22 January 2017, I published a post. This post, titled “Make your own 2017 Formula 1 livery with this template“, allowed users to do as much as as the title described: let people use my pre-made template to create custom liveries. I linked this to reddit’s /r/Formula1 subreddit, where it quickly took off. Not only did it receive a lot of short-term popularity, it remains (even now) one of my most visited posts....

Design: minimalist Formula 1 car

Between June and August, my internet cable broke. This meant I couldn’t browse the web or watch TV. There was an upside to all this: my productivity greatly improved. For 47 days, I was almost entirely disconnected from the world. I did a lot of designing during that time, and now I’m slowly uploading all of these designs both here and on RedBubble. The first of these is this minimalist F1 car design. Each element has exectly four anchor points, and four handles (two anchors have none). This makes for...

Formula 1 2017 Pre-Season Testing Preview; What, When, Who, Where, and the meaning of it all

Long have us Formula 1 fans waited for this. At the moment of writing, it has been exactly 90 days since the flag dropped in Abu Dhabi, which saw Nico Rosberg crowned World Driver’s Champion, snatching the title from his teammate Lewis Hamilton who had won the previous years and was the favourite to take the title in 2016 by a mile. In these 90 days, us fans have eagerly been waiting for this moment to arrive. The moment when the newly developed cars take to the track to prepare...

Make your own 2017 Formula 1 Livery with this Template

UPDATE: I made a version for the upcoming 2022 cars. View and download this new template here! About a week ago, I was wondering what the 2017 Formula 1 cars would look like, partly due to a whole list of posts on reddit with how the 2017 McLaren would or would not look. I was thinking about making my own version and adding it to the mix, but I did not have a clean slate from which I could create the livery. Instead of giving up, I made my own clean slate, based...

Confessions of a Dutch Formula 1 Hipster in the Max Verstappen era

Max Verstappen’s surprising win in the Spanish Grand Prix has left the Netherlands with Max-Mania. His first Formula 1 race with Red Bull was immediately turned into the first ever win for a Dutch driver in the highest class of motorsport. This has resulted in a lot of new fans among the Dutch, but also brought about some annoyances with this ‘old’ fan in particular.

1971 Martini Racing #23 Porsche 992 GT3 || ACC Custom Livery

The Porsche 917K is one of, if not the, most iconic Porsches. And, it’s had many liveries which already have spawned some form of recreation by my hand. Like the Salzburg livery, which I’ve already made for the Porsche 992 GT3 R and the Porsche 992 GT3 Cup. Or the iconic Gulf livery. Or the white Martini livery. The white and blue/red striped Martini livery is perhaps one of the most recognizable racing liveries, because it was not just used in endurance racing, but also in Rallye, Formula 1, and...

Maserati Formula E 2024 GT2 || ACC Custom Livery

I’ve tried to make a livery based on the Maserati Formula E car before, for the GT4 Maserati. However, for multiple reasons, I never finished it. For starters, I couldn’t find a good way to make the design fit the contour of the GT4 model. Secondly, I got too busy with commissions. And finally, nobody drives the Maserati GT4 anyway. Now though, the release of the GT2 DLC already proves more fruitful for Maserati in terms of representation on Assetto Corsa Competizione’s servers. Already, I’ve received multiple commissions from multiple...

Ferrari 641 F296 GT3 (F1 1990) || ACC Custom Livery

When I posted the Yardley McLaren M23 livery, someone on Reddit complained that I was only making these F1 retro liveries for the McLaren car. This led me to contemplate which other GT3 cars would be a natural match with a historic Formula 1 livery. Unsurprisingly, the first car to pop into my mind was the Ferrari 296 GT3. Not just because of Ferrari’s history, but also the numerous other Italian outfits which have participated in Formula 1. This led to me selecting three of my favourites: You can find...
